The recent death of the Rot. IUrrlson LamMin
Is another reminder, If owe were needed, of the fact
that oar war against the Rebellion wu In many re
spect a real war of Independence, and, like that of
Germ an f in the beginning of thin centary, the
training school for the nation and Its best men. The
RfT. Mr. Lambdln, who died on Monday, at the age
of thirty, In deacon's orders of the Episcopal Church,
had fought through nearly the whole of the reoent
war. When the Rebellion began he was teaohlng
at the Episcopal Academy, Just after gradu
ating at the Unlrerslty. Little past
twenty, he gave up his studious habits, his artistic
pursuits, and his intense love of domestic- life, to
take part In the war for the Union. Joining Colonel
Chapman Biddie s regiment as a subaltern, he ex
hibited great bravery and military skill In his first
battle that of Fredericksburg. His good conduot
In action and on the field soon won for him promo
tion, and he became an Assistant Adjutant-General,
With the rank of Captain, then of Major, and Oually
by breret of Lieutenant-Colonel. He served In
succession with various brigade and division com
manders, and his zeal and ability were thoroughly
tested and appreciated by Rice and
Chamberlain and Crawford and Hoffman,' te all of
whom he gave most efficient assistance. While
serving with General Hoffman he wai severely
wounded near Petersburg, and although after a long
sickness he was Anally able to return to the Sold,
and served to the close of the war, he never reco
vered his health. Indeed, he was from his earliest
youth so delicate that few of hlH rriends believed
tht he could withstand the fatigues and exposure
of campaigning, yet the hard life gave him frosh
Strength and new vigor
Ills beautiful Christian character, his marked vir
tues, his hearty enjoyment of all thai was good and
wholesome iu army life, and the perfect immunity
which he eni from all Its evil lufluonoes, all en
deared him to his own men and those of his regi
ment, and In a like degree to the general and stair
officers with whom be associated In the later and
more distinguished portion of his career in the army
of the Potomac. Returned to civil life, he went to
work at once and showed the same earnestness In
new. and old pursuits. Engaged for a time as
draughtsman in Mr. Joseph Harrison's en
gineering works, his old love or art
and literature took him back to his
teaohlng, and while he was bually engaged at the
Episcopal Academy, he began aud carried on his
studies for the Episcopal ministry, to which he was
admitted last spring. Full of earnest piety, Imbued
With the purest and highest religious zeal, gifted
with great literary skill and restrained from its fre
quent exercise only by too nice and critical a Judg
ment, ntterly unselfish and apparently nnconsclous
alike of his own nnnsual experience and rare en
dowments, he gave promise of becoming a useful
and, in time, a distinguished ofllcar of the Church.
His health, however, was irreparably broken by his in
cessant hard work, and even a summer spent abroad,
Where his love of art and his skill with his pencil
might have given htm the nocessary change and
rest, was broken by the outbreak of the war, which
brought him home. He never recovered sufficiently
to set to work at his new labors in the Church, but
his life had been spent In Its service, and in the
midst of his daily avocations ho hid found time for
helping in the establishment of a school for adults,
and for Instruction both la secular and religious
matters, with a zeal and skill which endeared him
to his associates. His whole life, short as it was,
was full of good works, and It was terminated too
soon for others who would have benefitted by It,
rather tliau for himself.
MUSICAL. AHI DRAMATIC.
nilts Lizzie Pleraon'a Dtbnt.
The first appearance upon the stage of a
young lady aspirant for dramatic honors is gene
rally a trying occasion for all parties concerned
the debutante, the acton, the audience, and
the critic. Of the latter, especially, charitable
judgment is expected; for a novice can scarcely,
with propriety, be judged by the same artistic
standard as an experienced actress. It is the cri
tic's principal duty to detect if possible promises
of future excellence, and to make all due allow
ances for the embarrassment that generally
renders a ddntt anything but an artistic success
even when talent of a high o-der is mani
fested. It is very rare indeed, for a young
actress to ho far overcome the difficulties of
her position as to merit hearty praise for her
first public performance; but the young lady
who personated "Pauline'' in the Lady of Lyons
last evening at the Arch Street Theatre did
prove herself to be so much superior In all the
higher qualities of her art to most debutantes,
that she is entitled not only to cordial commen
dation, but to a judgment based upon a different
standard of excellence than would have been
employed if her acting bad been less genuine in
its quality. Miss Pierson' debut was a brilliant
success, aud after all proper allowances are
made for embarrassment, crudeness, and other
drawbacks, the fact remains that she personated
"Pauline" with a grace, dignity, expression, and
at times power, that would have done credit to
an actress of long experience. The play and
the character were both well chosen, for in spits
of its high-llown language Tlie Lady of Lyons
is a model of dramatic construction, aud it is
one of the best acting dramas on the stage, and
the character of "Pauline," while it makes bo
heavy demands upon the powers of the actress,
furnishes her with some admirable situations
and with opportunities for the expression of a
great variety of emotions. For some reason
which we do not comprehend, the opening scene
of i the play was omitted and the debutante did
Dot appear until the garden scene in the second
act. The representative of "Pauline" was evi
dently considerably frightened, but she spoke
her lines with excellent emphasis, although in too
low a tone. Beyond good reading there were
no evidences of marked ability until the
scene in "Widow Melnotte's" cottage, where
"Pauline" learns of the trick that has been
played upon her. Ilere Miw Pierson thre w oft
ber embarrassment, and throughout the entire
scene, as well as during the balance of the play,
her acting was marked ly artistic qualities of a
Tery high order, and the hearty applause with
which the large audience in attendance greeted
her efforts was fully deserved. Miss Pierson is
tall, finely shaped, and with a very prepossess
ing stage presence. Her features are fine rather
than bold, aud this will probably Interfere
somewhat with the expression of the deeper
tragic emotions in case she easay the higher
walks of the drama, although her facial expres
sion last eveulng was fully up to the requlre-
tnents of tua part she was performing. Her
attitudes were generally very graceful and her
gestures appropriate and imposing. Her
elocution was good, very good, but
almost too studied, except in the animated
scenes, where the artificialities of ber style dis
appeared to a great extent, and she became
mors natuial as well as more pleasing. In'
deed, the' greatest fault we have to find with the
performance was in the artificial style that
marked both the acting and the elocution,
except in the scenes where the debutante
allowed herself to be carried away by the emo
tions of her part. This was an evidence of
careful training, and it may do her good service
until she becomes at home upon the stage; but the
peculiar constrained stateliness of manner that
marked portions of nsr performance last even
lag is the characteristic of a school of acting
that has had it day, and If Miss Pierson Intends
to adopt the stage for a profession, the sooner
phe gets rid of it the better. We
feel called upon to make these remarks
because Miss Pierson played in a manner that
entitles her to something more than a merely
complimentary notice, and we are doing her a
better service by pointing oat some of her defi
ciencies rather than by alluding merely to her
merits. Taking her "Pauline" as an artistic
effort, it was better than we have seen from
some actresses who have trod the stage for years,
and It is especially to be commended for its lady
like grace and dignity. If Mies Pierson is able to
perform any of the other leading roles of the
standard drama In as creditable a man
ner as she did "Pauline" last even
ing, she will be entitled to take'a place at once
upon the stage which few actresses are able to
obtain except after years of struggle with the
difficulties of their profession.
